Chapter 1980: Thirty Continents, All of You Are Old, Making a Bet

Inside the Deep Mind Dimension, Chu Kuangren received support from many forces in the universe.

When the ancient Embodiers saw that, they all fell silent.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren looked at the Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor and said indifferently, "Our universe is now at war with another. Due to this, I do not wish to see any internal conflicts. I'll ask one more time. Who is against this, and who is in favor of this?"

Everybody looked at each other.

Did they even have a chance to object?

Just the Seven Celestial Demon cultivators alone should not be provoked, let alone the fact that so many forces were in favor of Chu Kuangren becoming leader.

"Well done, Immortal King.

"It seems I have underestimated your reputation," the Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor said.

He stared at Chu Kuangren with fear in his heart.

At that moment, he finally understood something. If the Immortal Hall were to return to their former glory in the Immortal World, Chu Kuangren must first be wiped out!

However, Chu Kuangren had now become a force to be reckoned with.

Besides, it was no small force either!

Even if he wanted to, it was almost impossible for him to deal with Chu Kuangren, but he had not given up on that yet.

All he could do right now was wait for the moment when his opponent's weakness was revealed.

"Chu Kuangren, we can listen to your command. However, if you want to be our leader, don't you have to show us what you're capable of?" the Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor asked.

"That's right. If you don't demonstrate your capabilities, why should we believe you have what it takes to lead us?"

"That's right. This is war, not a simple battle. You may be a powerful cultivator, but we all know that a person's strength is far from enough on the battlefield. Do you possess the ability for strategic planning, changing tactics, coordinating attacks, and setting up defensive formations?"

Everyone voiced their concerns one by one.

Chu Kuangren simply lifted his finger. "One month. One month is all I need, and all of you will see what I can do."

"What do you mean?"

"In one month, I will reclaim all of Pan Gu Universe's territories that have been conquered by the enemy. On top of that, I'll conquer ten continents that are heavily guarded by the Central Heaven Universe's forces," said Chu Kuangren.

Everyone was astonished by what he said.

Following that, the Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor could not help but laugh. "Chu Kuangren, aren't you a little too arrogant? Do you know how many of Pan Gu Universe's territories have been occupied by the enemy in the past ten years? Thirty! Thirty continents!"

"Besides, these are all heavily guarded locations, and you want to take them all back in just one month? And even reclaim ten more continents occupied by the Central Heaven Universe? Don't you think you're being ridiculous?"

Some of them looked at Chu Kuangren with contempt.

They initially thought he might possess some fantastic abilities, but it turned out to be his boasting skills instead.

"Does he think the Central Heaven Universe's God Kings are all cannon fodder? Does he think he can just walk onto their continents and capture them?"

"That's right. What a joke..."

Chu Kuangren shook his head as he looked at the Embodiers before him. "It looks like all of you are more useless than I thought. Are you proud that thirty of our continents have been taken away in the past decade?

"All of you are old, really old.

"Your fangs have all been dulled from being in long slumbers. No wonder the Daoist Progenitor has entrusted me with Pan Gu Universe's future."

"Fine, fine. I won't expect all of you to do anything. If I can accomplish what I promised in one month, all of you shall pledge your allegiance and obey my command!"

After Chu Kuangren said that, the faces of those Embodiers looked grim.

First, they were ridiculed, and then he made a bet with them.

'Does he truly think he can win?'

"Alright, I agree."

The Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor snorted coldly and rolled his eyes. "If you fail, what will you do?"

Chu Kuangren fell silent for a while.

When the Myriad Dusk Immortal saw that, he sneered. "What's the matter? Are you regretting your words now? Are you afraid? Afraid to make a bet, huh?"

"You foolish imbecile!"

The other party was startled by Chu Kuangren's sudden outburst.

"You best get your facts straight. I'm the one saving all of you here! I'm doing the things that you guys are too cowardly to do! I'm capable of doing whatever things all of you can't!

"This is not some mere bet to settle a personal grudge. It's a matter of the survival of our entire universe. What should I do if I fail? Should I kneel and apologize to all of you or kill myself to atone for this failure?

"All of you should pray that I can do this because if I can't, we can all prepare to face the consequences together," Chu Kuangren said in a cold, harsh tone, displaying a rare outburst of anger.

Behind him, Zi Junlun, Yun Zhongyue, Buddha Yun Lan, and the others looked at the Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor coldly.

Zi Jinlun said bluntly, "What's the matter, Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor? Do you really hope that the Immortal King will fail? Do you want the Central Heaven Universe to win?"

The others also looked at the Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor with unpleasant expressions.

Only then did the Myriad Dusk Immortal Emperor realize that he had angered everyone.

"Of course not. I will wish the Immortal King a great victory," he said with a fist salute.

"If you can do what you said just now, these old bones of mine shall obey your every command."

"Chu Kuangren, show us what you've got then."

"I'll be looking forward to this."

Although those Embodiers disagreed with Chu Kuangren as their leader, if he could lead Pan Gu Universe to victory, they would not mind being at his command.

Frankly speaking, they could still understand the bigger picture.

After that, they all left the Deep Mind Dimension.

"Supreme Soul Overlord, I didn't expect your support," Chu Kuangren said to the Supreme Soul Overlord.

After all, he had many conflicts with the Soul Restricted Area.

She chuckled. "I merely made the choice that will benefit the Pan Gu Universe the most."

"You've made a wise decision."

"What should we do next, Immortal King? Reclaiming all the territories occupied by the enemy in one month is no easy matter," Yun Zhongyue said.

The Supreme Soul Overlord was also very curious. 'What's Chu Kuangren planning to do?'

"I have a plan for this, of course. You just need to listen to my command when the time comes." Chu Kuangren chuckled.

After all, he had participated in the Central Heaven Universe's higher-up meeting.

Although he did not have a detailed understanding of the Central Heaven Universe's defenses, he possessed a general idea of it. With that knowledge, reclaiming all the territories taken by his enemies would now be easier. Besides, they might even make further progress too.

After exiting the Deep Mind Dimension, Chu Kuangren opened his eyes, and a purple order was emitting faint light in his hand. That was a tool for him to enter the Deep Mind Dimension.

Then, he took out a jade order and contacted Jue Wushen.

"Wushen, how are things going on your side?"

"My King, the preparations are proceeding well."

"Very well. I will start taking action three days from now, and all of you will proceed as planned."

"Alright."

Chu Kuangren took the jade order and walked out of his room.

Right now, he was in a huge palace.

That palace was located in Pan Gu Universe's Third Continent.

It was one of the most important continents for the Pan Gu Universe in the Void Battlefield as it was used to provide valuable supplies and resources to the frontlines.

If that place fell, it would mean the end for all of the Pan Gu Universe's defenses, and they would be on the brink of being invaded.

"My dear."

At that moment, a graceful figure appeared.

It was Gu Linglong.

She had arrived at the Void Battlefield a few years ago.

While Chu Kuangren had been in closed-door meditation in the past few years, she had been by his side, guarding him.

"My dear, are you going to start soon?" Gu Linglong asked.

"Yeah." Chu Kuangren nodded. "I'll be counting on you when that time comes."
